"We all know that if we have a buddy to meet up with, work alongside and have a giggle with our fitness regime is more likely to stick," said a spokesperson.
"With this in mind Shapers members are invited to be paired up with a buddy over a four week period. During this time Buddies are encouraged to motivate each other, keep a record of their fitness and boost each other on. There is a prize at the end of the four week period for the pair who motivate each other the most.
"Shapers Ladies Fitness Centres are open 7 days a week and offer a relaxed, friendly environment for ladies of all shapes and sizes. They also offer time-saving 30 minute classes and circuits which are ideal for time-poor ladies.
"The Buddy Scheme starts on Monday 16th February .
Register your interest in Shapers by the 11th February in Sutton to be able to take part and have the opportunity to win a prize worth £300!
"We have a limited number of free spaces for press contacts to take part...if you would like to join in please contact Julie Sherwood on 07827 290496 or email [email protected]."
